Green g. Co.'S report on cotton futures SAYS:
| The man feature has been the ability TO hold
| the market. Little that could be called a new
demand came in, and there was correspond
ing absence of desire to sell, leaving the posi-
ton subject again almost wholly to LEGAL in
| huence. This was improved by one of the larger
| operators, who seemed to stand under the posi-
| rion from the outset and caught up every de-
| Ginning tendency, with rates touching some 6Ql7
points above last evening and ruling pretty
| firmly, though the extreme was not fully sns-
| tanned to the close. Foreign affairs remain
ABOUT as before. an port receipts are ranging
| trife above the calculation"
